Could you code a biological things to turn into a biological robot?

What advantage do you imagine you would get from having metal in your muscles?

theoretically yes but that technology has got to be thousands of years away. this is something more advanced than conventional bioengineering of an organism's morophogenesis and metabolism. i call that conventional with respect to what you're asking about because going from organism to bio-robot is even more exotic than bioengineering organic morphogenesis.

the advantage is that present day organic materials are nowhere near as strong as our strongest inorganic materials. the problem with living organic materials is that there needs to be a nutrient distribution network inside of it, which introduces imperfections that impact the strength of the material.

Maybe, but it wouldn't look like you became some cool metallic robot, but rather like some disgusting amalgamation.

Iron is heavy, kinda soft (unlike steel) and a broken bone wouldn’t heal, cartilages wouldn’t attach well, bone marrow would probably stop working and you would have iron poisoning from ingesting so much iron.
It would be terrible.

No, it would be about a million times easier to just graft on some robot parts. And we’re not even close to there yet.

Yes, but it's not like the iron is structured in a way that makes is significantly stronger. It's just be crunchier. Put iron flakes in ice cream, the ice cream isn't stronger.

Hitting the wrong key is not an indication of an ESL but of a phoneposter.

You gotta use your imagination better than that. Imagine iron or metal infused beaks or scales or claws, fangs, bones, exoskeleton and or anything really that could use some strength. Look up the volcano snail it's a good example.
